EMIRATES LIVING Selling Guide

Property appraisal.Your aim should be to sell your property at the best possible price in the shortest possible time. Our expert agents come across hundreds of properties every month, giving us intimate and unparalleled knowledge of property values in your area. This is why we consistently achieve the asking price across all our clients' properties

Selecting an agent.Selling a home can be a gruelling experience - and a good real estate agent can make the whole process a lot easier. When choosing an estate agent, consider their working hours, when they will be available to conduct viewings, their market presence and what kind of marketing your property will receive. These are critical to obtaining the maximum exposure and price for your property.

Signing agreement with the agent. As per RERA regulations, you as an owner will be required to sign an agency agreement with us where we can then discuss what kind of price you are looking for your property and how quickly you want to sell amongst other things.

Presenting your property.First impressions count, making the presentation of your property critical to a successful sale. Consider addressing any DIY jobs you have been meaning to get done, add a fresh coat of paint where necessary and try to declutter to make rooms appear larger. Our agent will then take photographs and write comprehensive property descriptions, all in just one visit.

Accompanied viewings.Our flexible hours are essential to maximise viewing opportunities for your property - in fact most of our viewings are carried out after work and at weekends. Accompanied viewings also mean we can use our expertise to help sell your property.

Receiving an offer.As soon as an offer is received we will notify you both verbally and in writing. Any special conditions of the offer will also be stated in writing and we will check the buyer's ability to proceed before you decide whether to accept the offer.

Offer agreed. Once you accept and you wish to proceed, we will prepare a draft agreement to sale as per RERA regulations.

Signing of agreement.You can appoint a solicitor to act on your behalf even though it is not a legal requirement. You can show draft agreement to sale to your solicitors. Once all the parties agree, we sign the agreement to sell and we receive a deposit from the buyer to be kept in our escrow.

Transfer. Final stage in selling process is transfer of title deed from seller to the buyer. This happens in Dubai Land department. Your agent will inform you about the transfer fees to be payable at Dubai Lands Department.
